"I bought this tantric toning video at the dollar store (lol), do you think tantric toning actually works?"
ANSWER
I have not heard of "tantric toning" before your question, but I do know that sex can be helpful in controlling weight and depending upon how you support your body during different sexual positions you can certainly strengthen different muscle groups.
There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat. For every 3500 calories you burn (that you do not replace with food!) you will lose one pound of fat. Sexual intercourse burns approximately 150 calories per half hour. Here’s how that stacks up against some other activities that may be part of your fitness regime: yoga 114 calories per half hour, dancing - rock 129, walking - 3mph 153, weight training 153, canoeing - 2mph 153, volleyball 174.
According to one survey reported by the Ottawa Citizen, Canadians on average have sex 7.33 times per month, lasting approximately 24.4 minutes. That means that “Joe Canada” is burning off more than 10 thousand calories a year, or about 3 pounds, in a not particularly active sex life. Those who are more sexually active, into Tantra for instance where lovemaking lasts 4 hours, would burn up 600 calories a session. At once a week that’s 31,200 calories or 9 pounds per year. Considering that people put weight on gradually, slowly gaining 5-10 pounds per year until they are overweight, it’s not unrealistic to assume that regular sexual activity is one way to help maintain a healthy body weight.

NOW AND ZEN
A variation of Buddhism that asserts enlightenment can come through intuitive insight, Zen is the simplest, most direct route to enlightenment but one of the most difficult to traverse. In Zen, there is nothing to find, nothing to discover, nothing to learn, nothing to remember, nowhere to go, nothing at all to do. How difficult is that? Most difficult.
Time for Exercise: one minute to eternity
Properties Required: none
Steps:
-
Sit comfortably (or uncomfortably) in complete silence. Just stay there until you get it!
-
An option: Vow to continue sitting until you become enlightened, or until you die.
-
Another option: When ready, begin. When thirsty, drink. When hungry, eat. When tired, sleep. When curious, look. When afraid, tremble. When happy, smile. When finished, stop.
Variation:
Try sitting together and employing this option: Ask your lover to give you a whack upside the head—not too hard but enough to jolt you out of your train of thought.

WHAT’S GOOD?
Be careful what you pay attention to because you are going to get more of it. You can help people focus on what they do want by asking them the simple question, “What’s good?”
Time for Exercise: one minute
Properties Required: none
Steps:
1.The next time you greet someone, instead of usual greetings such as “How are you?” “How’s it going?” “What’s new?” ask “What’s good?”
2.Suggest to everyone you know that they start asking others this simple question.
Comments:
If you pay attention to how people use language, you will notice that they often phrase responses in negative terms. For example, if you ask someone, “How are you today?” the most frequent response seems to be “Not bad.” If you ask, “How is everything?” they might say, “It could be worse.” When people talk about what they want, they often mention what they don’t want. For example, “I sure hope I don’t get that flu going around,” or “I don’t want to be sick,” or “I don’t want to be poor,” or “I hope my husband is not fooling around on me.”
Generally your consciousness works to create more of what you pay attention to. When you pay attention to what you don’t want, there is a good chance you are going to get not less but more of it. So pay attention to what you do want. For example, “I want to be healthy,” or “I want to have lots of money,” or “I want a relationship based on trust and commitment.”
